carry with them incalculable consequences, not only for Bosnia and Herzegovina,
but also for the entire region.

numerous reconstruction projects in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

between the two countries should gain new dynamics on the political level and
multilateral activities, through concrete economic initiatives, institutional
agreements in the fields of energy, education and health, as well as increased
cooperation in the field of culture.
